Services: Acupuncture

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is a complete system of medicine that looks for the cause of symptoms or disease and treats the patient as a whole. It is an excellent adjunct to modern medicine and, often, can treat conditions which modern medicine finds difficult or ambiguous.

TCM includes Acupuncture, Herbal Medicine, moxabustion, auricular acupuncture, tuina Medical Massage, and nutritional advice along with some other therapies.

Here is a partial list of conditions, put out by the World Health Organization, that acupuncture has been proven effective in treating.
